"How do you continue living when your worst fear has been realized? Bret and his sons were interrupted by banging on the door. Minutes later he was in handcuffs and the boys were pushed toward their estranged mother. Called the silver bullet effect, their mother had called with false allegations to illegally gain possession of their sons and smuggle them out of the country. It was weeks before the web of lies that put Bret in jail was untangled. Finally, a judge awarded Bret sole custody, but the police refused to enforce it. Months passed as he searched for his sons. 215 days after their abduction, law enforcement issued a warrant for the boys' mother and listed the kids as missing children. It would take the help of someone special before there would be a breakthrough in Bret's case. That special person was internationally renowned private investigator, Logan Clarke. Logan is the man who finds missing children."-- back cover
